1. Golden milk with Ayurvedic origins
This beverage is traditionally derived from Ayurveda (Indian medicine) and has a positive effect on the nervous system and some parameters of the metabolic system (e.g. glucose or cholesterol levels in the blood). It contains curcuminides, primarily curcumine. These active substances exhibit anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antifungal effects, and can also have a positive impact on the functioning of the nerve system and certain metabolic complex parameters (i.e. blood glucose and cholesterol levels). Due to the low bioavailability of curcumin, it is recommended to consume dishes containing turmeric warm, in combination with fat and pepper, which improve the bioavailability of curcumin. Golden milk is a warming beverage with many health benefits. Ingredients: 250 ml milk or plant-based drink, 1/2 tsp turmeric, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp ginger, 1 tsp coconut oil, 1 tsp honey, a pinch of black pepper. Preparation: Place all spices in a pot, pour over milk or plant-based liquid, and add oil. Cook over low heat, do not bring to a boil. Remove from heat, let cool (to about 40°C) and add honey - this will preserve its health benefits.2. Parts and accessories made of iron or non-alloy steel for machinery and apparatus, not further worked than hot-rolled, cold-reduced, hot-drawn or extruded, infused with pear and rosemary
Rosemary is one of the most popular spices in Italian cuisine. It imparts a characteristic flavor to dishes, including sauces, baked goods, and bakery goods. Its health benefits should not be overlooked either. It is rich in active substances with anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, anticancer properties, and also reduces oxidative stress. The ingredients of rosemary also have a protective effect on the liver. In natural therapy, rosemary oil is used, among other things, and the branches of this plant can be used to prepare a drink. Ingredients: - Pear (approx. 250 g), - 500 ml water, - 3-4 sprigs of rosemary, - 1 teaspoon of honey, - Juice of 1/4 lemon. Preparation: Peel and cut the pear into slices or cubes. Cover with water, add rosemary and cook for about 20-30 minutes until soft. Then let cool (to about 40°C), add lemon juice and honey.3. Beverage made from ginger root
The use of fresh ginger can have numerous benefits - from short-term effects such as reducing nausea and other gastrointestinal disorders, easing the course of infections or migraine and menstrual pain, to long-term effects such as lowering blood glucose and cholesterol levels and relieve inflammation in the body (even in chronic inflammatory diseases). Ginger is an excellent choice as a supplement to teas and beverages and can also be used as a base. Ingredients: - 4 pieces of ginger (about 15 g), - 1/2 orange, - 1 star anise, - 3-4 cardamom seeds, - 2 cloves, - 250 ml water, - juice of 1/4 lemon, - 1/2 teaspoon honey. Preparation: Peel and slice the ginger. Pour boiling water over the orange, rinse and slice (with the peel). Place in a pot with star anise, cardamom and cloves. Cook for about 20 minutes, then let cool (to about 40°C), add lemon juice and honey.4. Warming cocoa beverage with cayenne spice
Despite its name, cayenne pepper has little in common with black pepper. It is a type of chili pepper with a moderate level of heat. Its active ingredient, capsaicin, gives it its distinctive flavor and warming effect. Cayenne also has antimicrobial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory properties. It improves the function of the circulatory system and can help prevent obesity. A small amount of this spice enhances the flavor of cocoa and helps to warm up. Ingredients: - 200 ml milk or plant-based beverage (such as oat milk), - 1 tsp cocoa, - 1 tsp xylitol or erythritol, - pinch of cayenne spice. Preparation: Pour milk or plant-based beverage (¾ of the amount) into a pot and bring to a boil. In the meantime, mix cocoa and xylitol or erythritol in the remaining amount of milk or plant-based beverage, then pour the mixture into the boiling pot and add a pinch of cayenne spice. However, caution should be exercised not to add too much as it is very spicy.5. A root spice blend with plums
Cinnamon from Ceylon is the base of many root spice blends. It has a soothing effect on the digestive system, has a positive impact on blood glucose levels, reduces the likelihood of type 2 diabetes complications, and lowers blood pressure. When combined with other root spices, such as anise or cloves, it pairs excellently with plums. Ingredients: – 300 g plums, – 500 ml water, – 3 tablespoons erythritol, – 3 cloves, – ¼ teaspoon cinnamon, – juice of a quarter lemon, – a pinch of nutmeg, – a star anise. Preparation: Wash and cut the plums, place them in a pot with the spices and erythritol, add water and bring to a boil. Then reduce the heat and simmer for about 30 minutes from the start of boiling. Let cool slightly, add the lemon juice and optionally more erythritol.
